Co-Creating CDLI Vision & Mission 
On Thursday May 4th CDLI network members and funders came together to work with the stories of CDLI that you submitted over the last few months.  All 101(!) stories that were collected were read through to inspire the drafting of possible new Vision and Mission statements for CDLI.  There were four separate groups working at the same time to provide the contributions you find below.  You will see that some are draft statements and some are still in the form of brainstorming before drafting a statement.

We are excited to continue the co-creation process and put these out to you as CDLI network members.  We value any input you would like to share, as a network it is important that we all have a voice in this process.
If you have 15-20 minutes to look through and provide your thoughts we would love to bring your feedback into the next stage of narrowing in on statements for Vision and Mission.
